How to Eat for Health and Performance (Fat Focus)

Overview:
Quality matters. The way you choose your food should be grounded in freshness, natural sourcing, and simplicity.

Details:
Nutrition isn’t just about hitting macronutrient goals—it’s about the quality of your sources. To fuel your body optimally, prioritize foods that are as close to their natural state as possible:

  • Out of the ground, off the tree, swimming, walking, or flying—the fresher, the better.

  • Always refer to a thoughtful grocery list that supports your nutritional needs.

  • High-quality, natural fats—like avocados, nuts, seeds, olive oil, and fatty fish—should be part of your daily intake.

Why It’s Important:
Whole, natural foods—especially fats—help support hormone balance, brain function, and sustained energy. Processed substitutes often do more harm than good.

Action Step:
Today, audit your pantry. Replace one processed fat (like margarine or vegetable oil) with a high-quality natural option.
